The reason that charge that much is - well, two, they can, and it's normally a trip to your house to do it.

I was proposing an opportunity for an enterprising person to setup a lawn care service that actually took care of your lawn. Not the commercialized drive by hit anger run mowers we pay a premium for at the moment.
